Commenting the results for 1Q 2017, Rosneft Chief Executive Officer Igor Sechin said:
“The Company maintained industry leadership in investments pursuing monetization of unique reserves base and planned completion of large investment projects in near-term. Environment remains difficult: continuing world commodity markets volatility, rouble appreciation – all of this impacted the Company’s financial results. At the same time, the Company’s management takes all efforts to further improve efficiency and realize synergy effect from Bashneft integration. Undertaken measures let the Company maintain the operating profit in USD terms at the level of 4Q 2016 and increase it by more than 1.5 times y/y. The Company continues effective communication with the Government regarding investment drivers and schemes for realization of the Company’s reserves base potential, and issues of sustainable financial model implementation for refining business. Taking into consideration new strategic acquisitions which synergy effect will be realized in near future, the Company continues maintaining conservative level of financial leverage (net debt/EBITDA 1.56x) and stable cash flow generation.”
